Chapter 16

Aurelia’s face blushed further as she stepped forward, covering the robot’s mouth. But it was

of no use.

It had already begun reading aloud the proper restroom posture, causing quite an awkward situation.

Watching Aurelia’s flustered state, Leslie couldn’t help but find it oddly amusing.

“The player is at the back of its head. You covered the wrong place,” Leslie remarked.

Feeling utterly embarrassed, Aurelia contemplated covering her face with so many people watching.

Unexpectedly, Leslie promptly pulled her behind him.

With a few taps on the robot’s screen, Leslie transformed it from displaying embarrassing information into a series of characters.

His slender fingers gracefully tapped on the screen, and the robot blinked its eyes, now functioning properly.

“Hello, how may I assist you?” the robot asked.

“No, it’s fine.” Aurelia shook her head decisively, not daring to ask for assistance again.

Leslie waved his hand, and the robot turned and left.

He calmly stated, “There was a program error, causing it to give you the wrong directions. It’s not your fault.”

Aurelia was taken aback and lowered her head slightly.

“Thank you.

She promptly closed her mouth, realizing that this embarrassing incident was just another awkward moment in front of Leslie.

Surprisingly, he didn’t seem to derive any pleasure from her misfortune.

This contrasted with her memories of Seth, who always reveled in her mishaps during their three years together.

“Haha, look at you. Isn’t this too embarrassing? Who else can tolerate you except for me?”

Aurelia felt a sense of injustice as she recalled those moments.

She used to be so blind.

Feeling a bit dissatisfied, she was distracted by the lively booths ahead.

Aurelia hurried over and stood beside Leslie, listening to the host’s definition and vision for technology.

At that moment, Aurelia’s heart started pounding.

Eagerly opening her notebook, she was surprised to find that the mistakes had been corrected, and the confusing parts now had complete answers.

She only gave her notebook to… Leslie.

Turning to look at Leslie beside her, she said, “Mr. Synder, thank you.”

Because of the noise from the crowd, Leslie couldn’t hear clearly, bending slightly.
